KaVontae Turpin Working With First-Team Offense

Sunday, August 9, 6:19 PM

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver and returner KaVontae Turpin has had a strong training camp and has worked with the No. 1 offense throughout. Turpin has made plays as a receiver, catching passes from quarterback Dak Prescott, and remains one of the NFL's best returners. Last season, the undrafted playmaker hauled in 26 of 38 targets for 396 yards and two touchdowns, while adding 89 rushing yards and leading the NFL in kick return yards. While he'll likely work behind CeeDee Lamb, George Pickens, and Ryan Flournoy, Turpin adds fantasy value in leagues that favor return yards or in 16+ team leagues. Otherwise, he's on the outside of fantasy relevance for the 2026 season.

Caleb Douglas Briefly Leaves Monday Practice

Monday, August 17, 11:51 AM

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Caleb Douglas briefly left Monday's practice and went inside, according to David Furones. Douglas was walking fine when he left and returned to the field before practice was over. He put his helmet back on but did not participate in the final period. There has been no injury announced or explanation given for why the rookie stepped away. Douglas has been one of Miami's more consistent performers this summer, with head coach Jeff Hafley recently saying he had earned his spot on the team's initial depth chart. The third-round pick also made his presence felt in Friday's preseason opener against Washington, catching one pass for 28 yards and leading Miami in receiving yardage. Monday's brief exit is something to note, but Douglas returning to the field before the end of practice is at least an encouraging sign.
